With development work being rushed to the famous 500 foot level at Kirkland Lake and with an ore zone of over 5000 feet in length. the Ed. Hargreaves Kirk- land Gold Mines Ltd.. is forginl ahead with every indication of be- ing the next great gold producer

in the Eastern Kirkland Ioke Camp. Close Neighbor To Bldgood

Bidgood Kirkland, a. close neigh- bor to Ed, Hargreaves and from geological reports on the same structure as this new comer has in the last few months entered production with the highest ore values yet discovered in this world famous gold camp.

old time miners and prospectors have been anxiously buying the shares of Ed. Hargreaves accord- ing to reports from Kirkland Lake with the assumption that this new development will reach the success obtained by Bid-good in the last few months when the stock rose from a few cents to over $2.00 per share.

New Plant Capable of Deep Mining

The prment plant at the Ed. Hargreaves Kirkland property is capable of depth development to over 1000 feet and is said to be the heaviest ever installed at the same stage of development. in the Kirkland Lane camp. Preggnt are indications and geological struc- ture. it is reported, point to large- scalo production on this promising Junior Gold in Canada's richest Gold Field. at an early dot;

MR. DE MA.R.KY’S VISIT-“lvfr. Paul De Marky returned this week from a visit to Prince Edward Is- land, where he gave a piano recital at the Government House, Char- lottetown, before Lieutenant-Cow esnor and Mrs. George DesBrise.y DeBl0ls and more than two hundred guests. From the viewpoint of his. toric charm and romance, it would be difficult to find a. more delight- ful setting for such a performance than this old colonial mansion. Hero royal princes and great statesmen of past generations have been en- tertained by former governors. I-[ere Sir John A. Macdonald and the other great men who founded this Dominion met to consider t.he ides of Confederation. Among the many distinguished guests at Ml‘. dc Marky's recital, the presence of Miss Blanche Haviland added great- ly to the charm of surrounding memories. Miss I-Iaviiand is A daughter of the late Hon. T. Heath I-Iavlland. who was one of the Fathers of Confederation. Here. as Lieutenant-Governor, Mr. Haviland entertained Bis late Majesty, King George V, when he visited Prince Edward Island as s young midship- man prince. The Hon. George Des- Brisay Delslois is a. grand-nephew of the late Lieut.-Governor Havi- land and he is also a great-greate grandson of General Des Brisuy. who was the first English Governor of that part of our present Domin- ion of Oansds."—Montreal Star.

CHBISTIAN th

The Canadian pilgrims are due to arrive today at Le]-iavre and from that post they will be conveyed by special trains to Lille. At that city they will undertake tours of ceme- teries and memorials and battle- fields, proceeding later tomorrow night to A.mLs and Albert. On

‘Sunday the pilgrims will partici-

pate in the ceremonies attendant upon the unveiling by King Ed- ward VIII of Canada's national

‘ on Vimy Ridge.

Ypres is ready to take the Carl-

adians to their heart, for the re- ‘puta/tion of the Dominion and her

soldiers of 20 years ago stands high in ‘Flemish hearts. The older resi- dents recall the accomplishments of the Canadians during the war. The stories are being handed down from generation to generation how a men from acres the seas fought at St. Julien. at Poelcapelle and Gravenstafel Ridge in April. 1915. They tell of Canadian hero- ism 8/t Hill 60. Sanctuary Wood and Mount Sorrel, at st. Eioe and Arbraham Heights and Passchen- daele. at Frlezenberg Ridge and Goudberg spur.

Many of the pilgrims who reach here -tomorrow will have strange memories stirred vvithin them. They will depoeiie wzeetlls, at the base of the "Brooding Soldier" — Ca.na.da's memorial at St. Julian, and attempt to span the years that have elapsed since they were them- selves part of the army which made Canada's name reverber-ato throughout the world.

Fbr many reasons Canadians cherish Ypres and its intimate links with the sacrifices and achievements of Canadian youths. At Ypree the old originals of the 1st Canadian Division had their baptism of fire; the 2nd Division endured their first real test on st. moi Mound. At Mount Sorrel and Sanctuary Wood to the highway which rung from Ypres to I-Iooge, the 3rd Division withstood one of the most violent assaults of the war in June, 1916.

The notoriety of Ypres was months old when the Lst Division marched into the Salient from the neighborhood of Armentierres, early in April 1915. In those days Ypres was a bustiing Flemish com- munity. Its irihaioitants had con- tinued to pursue their ordinary avocations. despite the presence of the Germans on the surrounding ridges. War. after al, was the bus- iness of soldiers, not civilians.

A Rude Awakening

I-‘mm flimsy dreams of fancied security April 22, 1915, brought a rude avnilrening. Its early hours were marked by a sporadic bom- bardment scattered over a wide area; but gradually the gunfire in- creased, and by noon shels were dropping into ypres itself.

Houses collapsed. burying their occupants in the debris; fires broke out. Panic-stricken, the people ran into the streets. From the de-

gulshed shrioks of men, women and children. The Hotel de Ville, the ancient doth Hall, the Cathedral —all were marks for the enemy gunners.

At 4 o'clock in the afternoon the csnnonade deveoped into drumfire on the trenches held by the Can- adians, six miles beyond the town. Their defences crumbled, burying hundreds of their defenders. llbr nesry an hour this persisted.

Five o'c1ock—green flares shot up from the German trenches. and a. strange cloud, a. yellowish mist, drifted lazily across No Man's Land.

The cloud rolled towards the trenches, on the left of the Cans- dians, held by French Akerians, and behind it advanced massed

peril.

I-Isstily the 'Ith (British Colum- bia) Battalion was rushed forward to Kerselaeue, to bolster the left flank of the 13'?-ll. The 10th (A1139!- ta) and the lath (Canadian scot- tlsh) Battalions were mucllcd for- ward to Wieltje, about two miles northwest orf Ypres. Back at Vlam- ertinghe, a short distance south of Y‘pi'eJ, were tbs in (Western On- tario.) the 2nd (Eastern Ontario.) the 3rd (Toronto) and the 4th (Central Ontario) Battalions. The 2nd Battalion and elements of the 3rd were hurried forward to Wlelt- je; the lst and the 4th were dis- tributed towards Pilkern Ridge, im- mediately north of the Yser Canal.

Events moved ralpidy. 'I‘o relieve the situation on the open left flank it was decided to counter-attack through Kitcheners Wood, an area of bush about a mile wt of at. Jullen, into which the enemy had penetrated. At midnisht the 10th and 16th, supported by the 2nd. were launched into this operation. It was a wild, savage fight which. protracted through the hours of darkness. dwindled away. The sur- vivors were eventually recalled to man a trench fringing the eastern edge of the wood.

McMahon insisted he had been

hounded by sir John's office. The

Home Office, he related. refused to

permit him to publish a. magazine. after he was convicted of criminal

libel in 1933.

The hearing in the dimlit court- room was conducted in voices so hushed that spectators crowding forward at the rear had to cup their ears to hear in spite of the use of loudspeakers.

The subdued monotones of coun- sel were barely audible above the scmchlnr pen of the aged chief clerk. Often the clerk's head would bob up.

"N°l- 50 fast.” he would caution.

Much of the time McMahon stood on his clubfoot, eyes gleam- ins. his hands clenching the top bar of the dock.

Twelve witnesses tostlfied, among them Constable Anthony am-can Dick. who smashed at the pistol hand of the prisoner .5 mg gm‘ rode by.

Constable Ernest Daniel Mayne caused a stir when he tutified. "McMahon was hug my, the roadway straight for the King when I mppled with him. He had gone six or eight feet when I grabbed him. He then was abaug 10 Yards from the King."

Attorney Ge'nersl‘Bir Donald Somervell, in charge of um per- secution. quoted the prisoner u 99111118 Police: "I wanted to shoot myself in front of the King, but I lost my head."
